De Rossi claims that the encounter in a hotel room ended when Seagal "unzipped his leather pants".

'Arrested Development' and 'Ally McBeal' star Portia de Rossi is the latest actress to add to allegations of sexual harassment by Steven Seagal, claiming that the actor told her that it was important that they have "chemistry" in an audition before unzipping his trousers. 

"My final audition for a Steven Seagal movie took place in his office. He told me how important it was to have chemistry off-screen as he sat me down and unzipped his leather pants," De Rossi said on Twitter.

De Rossi joins Julianna Margulies in claiming that Seagal was sexually inappropriate during an audition process, with Margulies claiming that a casting director persuaded her to go to Seagal's hotel room at 10pm in order to secure a role and that when she got there, the casting director wasn't there but Seagal was, along with a visible gun.

"I saw his gun, which I had never seen a gun in real life," she told Jenny Hutt on SiriusXM last Friday.

"And I got out of there unscathed…I never was raped, and I never was harmed. I don't know how I got out of that hotel room. It always starts with 'I'm a healer. I want to massage you' and I sort of squirmed my way out."
